...writing for the paper l delivered as a kid,
and l get your fax.
:07:07
One little number off.
:07:09
- And, bing! We both are--
- l know.
:07:12
Then l started faxing you
and you start faxing me.
:07:15
Then pretty soon we're just...
:07:18
...faxing each other's brains out.
:07:23
House red.
:07:24
Thanks.
:07:25
lt must be the strangest way for
two people to get together l ever heard of.
:07:30
No.
:07:33
Mickey and Ellen hold the title
for the strangest getting together.
:07:36
At least in their weight class.
:07:38
How did they get together?
:07:40
She helped bury his father.
:07:44
Excuse me?
:07:46
No. l'll wait for Mickey to tell that story.
:07:50
Wait. Are you crazy?
:07:52
You can't start a story, ''She helped bury
his father'' and stop. lt's not allowed.
:07:57
- Come on.
- All right, all right. Here we go.
:08:00
This was a few years ago.
:08:03
Mickey's father died.
:08:05
lt's good. Mickey hated him.
:08:07
What?
:08:08
Everybody did. He left his family
when Mickey was a kid.
:08:11
When he left,
the neighbourhood had a street fair.
:08:14
l won a fishing rod.
Best time we ever had.
:08:17
Anyway, he dies...
:08:20
...finally.
:08:21
And the funeral service is
in the cargo area at JFK.
:08:25
Why?
:08:26
He wants to be buried in France.
:08:28
- Was he French?
- No. He was in the D-day invasion.
:08:31
I think on our side, but I'm not sure.
:08:34
His whole platoon, except him,
was wiped out defending a village.
:08:38
They were buried there and he wanted
to be buried with them.
:08:41
That's sweet.
:08:43
Okay.
:08:45
So, Mickey has to go over and accompany
the body, and see that it gets buried.
:08:50
Why, if he was such a bad guy?
:08:52
Whatever his father had done to him,
Mickey wanted to have a clear conscience.
:08:58
That's Mickey.
